summaryThis lecture explores the bidirectional relationships between sleep and memory across different populations and experimental approaches. Drawing on recent empirical findings, the sessions will examine how sleep contributes to the consolidation of various types of memories, and how daytime learning experiences influence subsequent sleep architecture and quality. Additional topics include the cognitive and sleep-related effects of videogame use, as well as emerging evidence on the relationships between daytime napping and health. Together, the lectures aim to provide an integrative perspective on sleep as a dynamic learning process and a key component of psychological and physiological wellbeing.
